Abstract :
This paper presents a new method to estimate dynamic neural activity from EEG signals. The method is based on a Kalman filter approach, using physiological models that take both spatial and temporal dynamics into account. The filter´s performance (in terms of estimation error) is analyzed for the cases of linear and nonlinear models having either time invariant or time varying parameters. The best performance is achieved with a nonlinear model with time-varying parameters.
